Subject: Harddrive Designation Letters
I had two harddrives on the primary channel(Master/Slave) and two cd drives
on the secondary channel. It use to be that the two harddrives would be C:
and D: followed by any logical drives and then the CD drives. I had C-J
drives. I installed a new HD in the same position as the old one -slave on
the Primary channel with 3 logical drives. Now my D: drive is one of the
CDdrives and the new HD is later in the alphabet. Previously, Under WinME,
I could designate the drive letter for Cd/DVD drives. I like to have a
letter later in the alphabet to allow for adding logical drives on the
harddrive. In Win XP I don't find this setting in properties for the CD
drives. How can I correct this situation so that the 2 Primary HD's are
first followed by the Logical drives? How can I push the CDDrives later
into the alphabet? OS is Windows XP-Home, SP2. Thank you, William Patton
